Make a Sandwich with Hay Hampers


10 Sandwich Ideas for your Afternoon Tea

 Sandwich week

 

It may have passed you by, but this week is National Sandwich week!

We are a nation of sandwich lovers with the UK sandwich industry worth £8 billion in 2017. We were early adopters of sandwich shops with pre-packaged sandwiches appearing in BHS and M&S as early as the 1960s. This may be because an English aristocrat was also attributed as inventing the concept- The 4th Earl of Sandwich apparently asked his valet to bring him “meat tucked between two pieces of bread” so that he would not have to leave his gaming table to take supper and others began to order “the same as Sandwich!”


Our hampers contain many items that would make a tasty meal tucked between two pieces of bread!


Here are some ideas to inspire you and take your sandwich making to the next level this week!


1. Cooked Ham, Brie, sliced Apple with a drizzle of honey and rocket leaves.
2. Grilled Mature Cheddar & Red Onion chutney with fresh chopped spring onions
